Lebanese President Open to Peace with Israel: ‘Facilitating Construction of 3rd Temple’ says Rabbi
August 16, 2020
A recent statement by Lebanon’s president suggested that he would be receptive to an agreement with Israel similar to the one signed with the United Arab Emirates. The announcement has huge political and security implications, suggesting that Hezbollah may be on its way out, but, more importantly, a pact of brotherhood with Lebanon would be an element in the construction of the Third Temple as it was in the days of King Solomon.
In an interview with French-language BFM TV on Saturday night, Lebanon’s President Michel Aoun was asked if he would consider making a peace agreement with Israel as the United Arab Emirates had just done.
“That depends, Aoun responded. “We have problems with Israel and we have to resolve them first.”
Though the response was non-committal, this represented a major shift in his position on Israel.
In 2006, as head of the Free Patriotic Movement (FPM), he signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Hezbollah which included a military strategy targeting Israel. Hezbollah is a powerful political entity, having fully one-third of the seats in Lebanon’s parliament.
Concerning the recent normalization deal signed between the UAE and Israel, Aoun stated that the UAE is an “independent country.” …
The recent blast in Beirut Port has turned public opinion against Hezbollah. The explosion killed at least 171, wounded at least 6,000. Causing an estimated $10–15 billion in property damage, it left an estimated 300,000 people homeless. …
Rabbi Yosef Berger, the rabbi of King David’s Tomb on Mount Zion, noted that official relations with Lebanon would certainly facilitate the construction of the Third Temple, but it also represented the appearance of other essential elements. …
Rabbi Berger noted the gematria (numerological value in Hebrew) of Donald Trump (דונלד טראמף), is 424, equalling Moshiach ben David (משיח בן דוד), the Messiah from the house of David.
“This indicates that the US president is bringing about conditions for the Messiah and the Third Temple,” Rabbi Berger said. “Netanyahu, who is a man of war, like King David, is not suited to build the Third Temple. The man of peace who comes after him will build the Temple. But peace treaties will create peace and the conditions for building the Third Tempe.”
“People who rely on reason will ignore or not even be able to see the changes that are happening. If you see current events through the eyes of faith, rely on the bible, the plan is very clear.” https://www.breakingisraelnews.com/156786/lebanese-president-open-to-peace-with-israel-facilitating-construction-of-3rd-temple-says-rabbi/
Well, the reality is that true Christians rely on God and His word and do properly use reason.
That being said, no, I do not believe that because of numerology, US President Donald Trump is bringing in a massive third temple (see also Why is a Jewish Temple in Jerusalem Not Required?).
As far as Lebanon and peace goes, there are major factions in Lebanon that would presently riot and cause severe internal problems if Lebanon did that now.
That being said, the Bible does tell of a temporary peace deal in the region in Daniel 9:27 (see also The ‘Peace Deal’ of Daniel 9:27).
However, that temporal peace will not last.
Some time after the deal of Daniel 9:27 is confirmed by a European prince, the following will take place:
3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people,
And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.
4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation,
That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”5 For they have consulted together with one consent;
They form a confederacy against You:
6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites;
Moab and the Hagrites;
7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek;
Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Assyria also has joined with them;
They have helped the children of Lot. (Psalm 83:3-8)
Notice some of what the old Radio and Worldwide Church of God published related to Psalm 83:
Turn to the astounding prophecy found in Psalm 83:1-8. David, inspired of God, predicted the coming time when ALL of Israel’s enemies would join together in an effort to crush out even the name “Israel” from the face of the earth! (Verse 4) “For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee…” (verse 5). Notice the nations making up this confederation. “Edom [Turkey], and the Ishmaelites [Saudi Arabia]; Moab [Jordan], and the Hagarenes [they anciently dwelt in the land known as Syria today]; Gebal {Lebanon}, and Ammon [Jordan] and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; Assur [whose descendants migrated to Germany] is joined with them; they have helped the children of Lot” {Moab and Ammon in modern Jordan). Here we see that the Arab nations mentioned are allied with Germany (Assur) which we know from other prophecies will be the military leader — naturally so — of a United States of Europe… (Boraker R. SYRIA RAIDS ISRAEL – Where Is It Leading? Plain Truth. November 1966)
They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee: The tabernacles of Edom [Esau or modern-day Turkey, a non-Arab but Islamic nation] and the Ishmaelites [Saudi Arabia]; of Moab [part of Jordan] and the Hagarenes [anciently these people dwelt in the land known as Syria today]; Gebal [Lebanon], and Ammon [modern Jordan], and Amalek [part of the Turks]; the Philistines [the modern Palestinian Arabs] with the inhabitants of Tyre [Lebanon]; Assur [whose descendants, the Assyrians, migrated to Germany] also is joined with them: (Stump K. The Arab World in Prophecy. Plain Truth, December 1979).
So, while Lebanon will one day go along with a temporal peace agreement with Israel, that will not last.
As far as the deal of Daniel 9:27 goes, the Continuing Church of God (CCOG) is pleased to announce the following video on our Bible News Prophecy YouTube channel:
UAE Deal: Peace in the Middle East?
On August 13, 2020, US President Donald Trump sent out a tweet over Twitter of something called the “Joint Statement of the United States, the State of Israel, and the United Arab Emirates;” it is also called the Abraham Accord(s). Many are excited about it as it is the first such deal between Israel and an Arab nation in 25 years. Others have denounced it as counter-productive. The United Arab Emirates has agreed essentially to recognize Israel if it does not proceed now with the annexations of Samaria, etc. it had planned. Although it is being hailed as a “historic peace deal,” a senior Palestinian official and negotiator named Saeb Erekat, said on August 14, 2020, “You are rewarding aggression. … You have destroyed, with this move, any possibility of peace between Palestinians and Israelis.” On the other hand, Breaking Israel News has suggested that this deal fulfills prophecies in Psalm 133:1 and Genesis 16:12 related to Ishmael and Jacob–is that true? Will peace come to the Middle East? Does Daniel 9:26-27 talk about a seven-year temporal peace deal coming to the Middle East? Will the prince, who becomes the King of the North, confirm this deal and break it after 3 1/2 years? How do we know that it is a European (a descendant from the peoples of the ancient Roman Empire) confirm it? Will most be deceived by false claims of a humanistic, Satanic, peace? Will many Christians not understand? Is the confirmation of a coming deal a countdown to the start of the Great Tribulation, the destruction of the USA (Daniel 11:39) and its Anglo-Saxon descended allies, as well as the destruction of a confederation of Middle Eastern and North African peoples led by one the Bible calls the King of the South (Daniel 11:40-43)? Will humans bring real peace or do we need the return of Jesus and the establishment of the millennial portion of the Kingdom of God to do that? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more.

The ‘Peace Deal’ of Daniel 9:27 This prophecy could give up to 3 1/2 years advance notice of the coming Great Tribulation. Will most ignore or misunderstand its fulfillment?
